NANA MOUSKOURITopic: Nana MouskouriThe Greek singer has lived in Geneva since 1974. Born in 1934, Nana Mouskouri was raised by a modest family on the Island of Crete. When she was three, her family moved to Athens, where her father worked as a film projectionist. Despite a flaw in her vocal cords, Nana Mouskouri took singing lessons regularly. During the German occupation, her family no longer had the financial means to pay for her lessons. But her teacher saw that she had a certain talent and continued to give her lessons free of charge. She was accepted to the Athens Conservatory, where she studied for eight years and familiarized herself with other styles of music such as jazz and blues.
